Sick and anxious

Remember before moving in with my boyfriend, he asked if I could find another home for my cat?

Well, I moved - it cost $1800! - and brought the cat with me. Silly me, I thought he might have changed his mind.

No. He still wants me to find another home for my cat. He doesn’t even want to *try* getting our two cats accustomed to each other.

I’m keeping quiet on the outside, but on the inside I feel sick. I don’t know if I even feel the same way about my bf anymore.

UPDATE: I talked to my aunt about this. She is willing to take my cat in. She also understands why I’m upset and mad at him. I should have called her a month ago!

I wish he were willing to try, but I think it is an unrealistic expectation if this is something he made clear before hand. It may be difficult to part with your cat, but focus on the big picture and what is most important, that being the relationship with you BF. I hope it all works out for you. I don't thing he is being unreasonable since you knew this before hand, so try to look at it from his perspective too. Give things a chance, a relationship is all about give and take. Good luck to you.
